Synopsis
Bo Brewster is forced to join a before-school anger management program after having a screaming fight with his coach that resulted in his being thrown off the football team. The group sessions help Bo come to terms with his angry relationship with his father that is being mirrored in his relationship with the football coach. As another outlet for his emotions, Bo begins to train for an ironman tournament which he hopes to win despite the fact that his father is helping his main opponent.

While training for a triathlon, seventeen-year-old Bo attends an anger management group at school which leads him to examine his relationship with his father.

Publisher's Note

Bo has been at war with his father for as long as he can remember. The rage he feels gives him the energy as a triathlete to press his body to the limit, but it also translates into angry outbursts toward his teachers.

Now dangerously close to expulsion from school, Bo has been assigned to Anger Management sessions with the school"truants." With an eclectic mix of hard-edged students, Bo may finally have to deal with his long-brewing hatred for his father -- before it eats away at him completely.



Industry Reviews
"[In] Chris Crutcher's...hard-edged coming-of-age novel....[m]any tender moments underlie the surface machismo that carries along the action in this raw and robust novel."
San Francisco Chronicle Book Review - Susan Faust (07/30/1995)
